As announced on the Big Finish website this week, and in the latest DWM, Big Finish is killing of the Sixth Doctor! Fortunately, being Big Finish, this doesn’t mean the last of Colin Baker!

September 2015 will see a lavish boxset (and Colin’s first) as the Doctor and several companions tackle the Valeyard in a set of connected stories.

The details

Four stories, four sets of companions and four sets of writers. Yummee! The details are:

End of the Line by Simon Barnard and Paul Morris and latest companion Constance (Miranda Raison, fresh from her first trilogy) helps the Doctor investigate a commuter train that has lost its way…

The Red House lets Alan Barnes loose on the Doctor as Charlotte Pollard helps him on a world of werewolves…

Stage Fright by Matt Fitton gives us the return of Flip (!!) and Jago & Litefoot. Does life get any better than that?

Brink of Death by Nick Briggs winds matters up in the company of Mel Bush and the Doctor makes the ultimate sacrifice.

 It’s odd how we all know the ending (McCoy in a wig on the TARDIS floor) and there has been a novel (Gary Russel’s Spiral Scratch) taking us into Time of the Rani. How will it all work? Wait until September!
